[LAU] First KXlinux headaches.

Y-ellow All.
         Sorry to have to ask but does anyone know how to get an evvy24 
sound card to work in KXlinux?

On the recommendations of Nedko, I'm now trying out KXlinux. It too is 
Ubuntu based so fingers crossed on that one. Except KDE and not gnome. I'm 
still trying to wrap my head around the paradigm at work here but "Slow" is 
one word that comes to mind. It took 3 hours to install. Well, OK, mainly 
because I fell asleep while waiting for it. But every time I woke up it was 
trying to shred the hard drive. 3 hours later after failing to reboot by it 
self, I finally booted into something resembling a working system.

I think it was trying to download and install about 300 meg of updates or 
something? It never said what it was doing, it just sat there hammering the 
hard drive.

Anyway, It works. I'll get the hang of it. Actually it looks rather 
interesting if a bit of a dog's breakfast. I can deal with that. But the 
DSP124 sound card is nowhere to be seen. So all I hear is a tiny squeak out 
of the internal speaker. I assume that the drivers weren't part of the 
install  and no envy24 controls. So the first thing I need to do is get 
that working. Would anyone be able to walk me through obtaining these and 
installing them please?

Thank you very kindly in advance.

Onward and... Well... Sideways perhaps.

Be absolutely icebox.
